Application Guidelines

When to Apply

  • Apply during the mid-season growth period (late spring to early summer, typically June–July), when plants show active growth and fruiting.
  • Ensure soil temperatures are between 60°F and 70°F (15°C to 21°C) for optimal nutrient uptake.
  • Reapply every 4–6 weeks during the active growing season, adjusting based on plant needs.

How to Apply

  • Application Rate:
    • Use 1 tablespoon (15 grams) per large pot (10–20 gallons).
    • Adjust for larger pots or mature plants, but avoid exceeding recommended rates.
  • Method:
    • Granular Form: Sprinkle evenly around the plant base, avoiding stems and foliage. Gently work into the top inch of soil.
    • Liquid Form: Dilute per manufacturer instructions and apply to soil.
    • Pre-Watering: Ensure soil is moist to prevent root burn.
    • Watering: Water thoroughly after application to dissolve fertilizer and deliver nutrients to roots.
  • Monitoring: Watch for nutrient deficiency (e.g., yellowing leaves) or excess (e.g., leaf burn) and adjust application as needed.

Tips for Success

  • Soil Temperature: Maintain 60°F–70°F for effective nutrient absorption.
  • Timing: Apply during active growth (June–July) for maximum impact on fruiting.
  • Avoid Over-Fertilization: Stick to recommended rates to prevent nutrient buildup or plant stress.
  • Safety: Wear gloves during application and store fertilizer in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets.
